Very unclear what the original issue is. If by "workarounds" you mean the
context definitions that remove various engravers, then it is unclear what
you expect to print if you remove everything.
So, I'm not sure what my next step should be.

Better to have one file per use case.
Thanks for any additional help,

Just guessing about what you are trying to achieve. As best I can gather,
it seems like you want to print rests, with no barlines, and with line
breaks. Here is one way to achieve this. Not sure what the point of
\stopStaff is, but it works with that command.
\version "2.19.83"
\header{
title = "19 rests: prints all rests and line breaks, and uses empty
barlines rather than removing the barline engraver."
}
voice_one_one = {
r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar ""
\break
r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar ""
\break
r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1 \bar "" r1
\bar ""
\bar "|."
\stopStaff
}
\score {
<<
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "upper" <<
\clef "treble"
\voice_one_one
>>
>>
>>
}
